On 24th November 2017 BMG proudly release Gary Moore’s "Blues And Beyond", a remarkable collection of his powerful and emotive blues studio recordings. Blues and Beyond is released on double CD, 4 LP and as a box set, which includes unreleased live recordings and the official Gary Moore biography "I Can’t Wait Until Tomorrow" written by Harry Shapiro.
Best known for his evocative solo hits, "Parisienne Walkways" and "Still Got the Blues" (live versions feature in this set), and his on/off membership of Thin Lizzy, Gary Moore’s solo career comprises over twenty albums.
Throughout the 1980s, Gary moved up the rock hierarchy, but turned his back on what he regarded as the empty flash of metal and reverted to his heart music – the blues – where ironically he scored his biggest commercial success through his 1990s and 2000s blues albums.

A new Cozy Powell box set will be released on 25th August 1st September 2017, including all the three solo albums what Cozy has released under Polydor Records' label. The three solo albums where we also can find Gary's name. The first one, "Over The Top", originally released in 1979, got some bonus tracks as extras - what interesting to see, that many of them are listed as 'instrumental' versions. Of course the whole album was instrumental, so we will see and hear soon. The other two albums - "Tilt" from 1981 and "Octopuss" from 1983 will be used in its original format, both of them including great playing by Gary Moore. It seems to be a nice new release, especially for those, who didn't collected all these solo albums previously.

"Bad For You Baby" will be re-released on double vinyl on the 28th July 4th August 2017. Only 1500 copies will be available this time and it will be pressed on blue vinyls. The album was originally released in 2008, but the fans had to wait for the LP version until the summer of 2009. If you've missed the first pressing, it will be released again together with the acoustic bonus track, "Picture On The Wall".

Three more vinyl reissues have been released by Universal Music during the spring of 2017.
"After The War" (first released in 1989), "Still Got The Blues" (first released in 1990) and "After Hours" (first released in 1992) came out in their original shape with the original tracklists. They are available on quality 180g vinyls from 17th March 2017.

Deep Purple keyboardist Don Airey has launched a pre-order PledgeMusic campaign for a K2 – Tales of Triumph And Tragedy box set. He initially recorded the album in 1988 at Sarm East Studios, London, and was inspired by an article written by mountaineer Jim Curran about his harrowing experiences on the 1986 expedition to K2 that claimed the life of 12 climbers. The album features guest appearances by artists including Gary Moore, Cozy Powell, Colin Bluntstone and Chris Thompson. The K2 box set will be limited to just 100 copies, and each comes with a signed and numbered certificate. The package will also contain a CD with seven previously unreleased bonus tracks, a DVD featuring performances and interviews, a repro press pack, a promotional photograph and a map of K2. Airey says: “You are going to get something that will please everyone and hopefully you'll like the music too!”
